No. 2.
3 DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATION REGARDING A TEMPORARY USE
TO PLACE AN ARCH BUILDING AND MOBILE HOME ON THE SOUTH
PARKING LOT OF THE TROPHY CLUB COUNTRY CLUB WHILE THE
EXISTING FIRE STATION IS DEMOLISHED AND A NEW FIRE STATION IS
BUILT AT 295 TROPHY CLUB DRIVE.
Fire Chief Danny Thomas stated that back when this project was started four years ago
they contemplated where they were going to build and how they were going to build.
He stated they went through several different due diligences as far as getting an offsite,
to get the existing station from one site to another while they tore down the old and built
the new. They needed to stay centrally located as much as possible. They looked at
several different venues and a couple of properties were expensive. The Country Club
offered their most south parking lot, which is their overflow for huge events, at no cost.
Chief Thomas stated that they did a preliminary layout of what could be put on the site
and they have a tent for equipment and a mobile home for temporary living quarters for
Fire personnel. They anticipate having this need for 8 to 12 months.
Ms. Huggins stated this is a special use – it is not something that would typically be
allowed by a business in the Town of Trophy Club. Staff is asking for the Planning &
Zoning Commission to recommend approval to the Town Council for this request
because it involves public safety. A place is needed for the Fire Station apparatus and
personnel to reside while the new station is being built so that EMS and Fire Safety is
available to Trophy Club residents. The Country Club site is a central location. It
provides good access to either side of Town. Staff recommends approval.
Chairman Hill added that an exception is needed in order to allow the personnel to have
temporary living quarters in a mobile home since mobile homes are prohibited in the
Town. This will be a special use permit for the Municipal Utility District to put a mobile
home on the site for a period of about 18 months.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 7 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Ms. Huggins stated that the timeframe will be while the new station is being built –
whatever timeframe that will be – “we don’t believe that will be longer than 18 months”.
She stated that mobile homes have been prohibited in all zoning districts except a
designated “Mobile Home/Modular Home District” zoning since 2002.
Chairman Hill stated that the contractor that will install the tent that will house the fire
equipment apparatus will be required to submit engineered stamped plans by a State of
Texas engineer during the building permit process. Ms. Huggins confirmed that
engineering will be required at the building permit stage. Chief Thomas also stated that
the vendor has assured him that this is a process they go through quite often as far as
doing engineered plans for their tents. This will pretty much be a “garage”.
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that the City will be under tremendous liability “if this
thing doesn’t stand the wind that is coming. This is Texas and the wind will blow. Will
the engineering stamp of approval cover us in case there is wind damage and that thing
comes down and you have firemen in that facility?”
Chief Thomas stated that the company had facilities up during Hurricane Ike that
withstood the storm. “Nature is nature. We’ve seen a 100-year flood in this last couple
of years too so it’s hard to say what Mother Nature will do.”
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that he doesn’t want to see the City liable. He asked
Tom Rutledge if there is recourse if there are firemen injured in some type of weather
incident. What kind of liability is the Town under? Vice Chairman Stephens stated that
there were all kinds of assurances about the Cowboy facility and yet “some people were
very seriously injured in an extreme situation, but Texas has had extreme weather
lately.”
Tom Rutledge stated that this structure, like any structure whether it is a rigid structure
or a temporary structure, would have to be engineered. There are engineering
calculations they would have to go through to calculate the wind loads that can
withstand those sustained winds in accordance with the Uniform Building Code. There
are two things – the structure itself, and how the structure is secured to the ground to
make sure it doesn’t blow away, and also to make sure it doesn’t collapse. It is in the
documents that are part of the application that they have submitted and that is a
requirement to get the building permit.
Chief Thomas stated that the whole [tent] structure will be mounted to concrete. It is not
going to be a personnel facility. It will be an equipment facility. The only time people
will be in that facility is when truck checks are being done or they are coming out of the
station on call.
Commissioner Forest asked who will own this facility. Chief Thomas stated that it will
belong to MUD1. Commissioner Forest asked what will happen with the facility when
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 8 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
the Fire Department no longer needs it. Chief Thomas responded that it will go on the
market for sale, if marketable.
Commissioner Ashby asked about the infrastructure for the tent and trailer – sewer and
water. Chief Thomas stated that the sewer will be a holding tank and there will be
temporary water and electrical connections. Commissioner Ashby stated that the fire
trucks are big and weigh a lot. Chances are the parking lot concrete is only 4 to 5-
inches thick. What is the liability for damage? Chief Thomas stated that in the contract
with ClubCorp they have agreed to restoration back to the original state.
Commissioner Davidson asked if the emergency lights on Trophy Club Drive will be
moved. Chief Thomas stated that they are not needed. Commissioner Davidson asked
if the existing lights work. Chief Thomas stated that they do not, but a new system will
be put in with the new station. Commissioner Davidson asked if the mobile home will
be in the grass section of the Country Club. Chief Thomas confirmed that it will be in
the grass. It will be blocked and skirted.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked if modifications for turning radius will be needed to
come out of the Country Club parking lot onto Trophy Club Drive. Will a tree need to be
removed? Chief Thomas stated that the tree will not need to be removed. He stated
that they have played in that parking lot for ladder testing and hose drills and know that
they can navigate the parking lot. He stated that they also have talked to Beck
Properties and could make an exit to the right [through 300 Trophy Club Drive] if
needed.
Commissioner Ashby made a motion to recommend approval to the Town Council to
allow a temporary Arch Building and temporary Mobile Home on the south parking lot of
the Trophy Club Country Club while a new Fire Station is built at 295 Trophy Club Drive.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Reed.
Ayes: Hill, Reed, Ashby, Davidson, Forest, Sheridan, Stephens
Nays: None
Action: 7-0, Approved
This item will be heard by the Town Council on Monday, March 22, 2010.
Chairman Hill then called for Item No. 2 on the agenda.
2 DISCUSS AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATIVE TO A REQUEST
FOR PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL FOR AN APPROXIMATE 46.413
ACRE TRACT OF LAND SITUATED IN THE R. ALLEN SURVEY, ABSTRACT
NO. 5, TO BE KNOWN AS NEIGHBORHOOD 8 OF THE HIGHLANDS AT
TROPHY CLUB. APPLICANT: JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. ON
BEHALF OF LENNAR HOMES OF TEXAS. (PP-10-018)
Jaison Stephen, Jacobs Engineering, came forward representing Lennar Homes, the
owner and developer of the property known as Neighborhood 8. He stated that this
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 9 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
property was brought before the Commission in October 2009 for an amendment to the
PD zoning. The Commission unanimously approved the zoning, which was
subsequently approved by Town Council, and the current plan before the Commission
meets the requirements of the PD zoning. Mr. Stephen stated that he would like to take
a few minutes to answer some questions from Commissioner Sheridan that were
forwarded to him by Ms. Huggins.
He stated that there is a flowage easement on the east side of the property. The
flowage easement will be maintained by the HOA. The majority of the flowage
easement will be kept in a natural state except along the lots of Block F where the
developer intends to put a mowed area that will be maintained by the HOA. Along
Trophy Park Drive, as required by the PD, there is a screening wall that will generally
match what is on the opposite side of Trophy Park Drive. That screening wall will be
placed on the right-of-way/property line. The final plat will have a 5-ft. wall maintenance
easement so that access is granted for maintenance of the screening wall – similar to
the opposite side of the street where a 5-ft. wall maintenance easement exists.
There is “Zone X” and “Zone AE” designated on the plat. This is a FEMA studied area.
Zone X represents areas delineated on FEMA maps are outside the 500-year flood. All
the lots on the property are outside the floodplain.
Mr. Stephen stated they have complied with all of Staff’s comments and staff
recommends approval and the applicant asks for your approval.
Steve Howard, Lennar Homes, stated that they have been active in Trophy Club
Highlands for a little over a year now and they have developed a neat housing product
for the community. It has been well received by the Town and members of the general
public. They intend to design new product to conform to the zoning of these home sites.
It will be very similar to what you will see in the section closest to Byron Nelson High
School with a recessed garage door set back in the home, a lot of stone, a lot of
porches and masonry/stone combinations. It will be a product uniquely developed for
this site. Mr. Howard stated that they will not be bringing into Trophy Club a product
from somewhere else and trying to put a round peg in a square hole. They plan to keep
the same high level of standards that has been presented to the public here in Trophy
Club during the last year.
Mehrdad Moayedi stated that they are here because they made some promises and
conveyed those promises and want to make sure they live up to those promises.
Chairman Hill stated that he has an item of concern. He stated that the agenda item
before the Commissioners tonight is a Preliminary Plat approval request for the area
known as Neighborhood 8 of the Highlands of Trophy Club, planned for 184 single
family homes on Lot Type 5, requiring a minimum lot size of 5,250 square feet, typically
a 50 x 105 square foot lot. His understanding is that Phase 1 will consist of 74 homes,
with 110 homes proposed for Phase 2.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 10 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
He called the Commissioners attention to the 3.5 acre gas well site known as Pad 4-H,
located in Block G of Neighborhood 8. An existing masonry wall around Pad 4-H
adjoins rear property lines of Lots 1, 2 and 3 such that the rear property line fence for
these 3 lots already exists. The masonry wall is approximately 50 feet off the rear line of
Lots 16 through 21, and there is approximately 150 feet between the masonry wall and
rear property lines of Lots 27 through 32. With these spacing dimensions, the owners of
lots 15 through 32 could have rear yard privacy fencing and not violate Town
Regulations pertaining to parallel fences, as there would be more than 20 feet between
their fences and the masonry walls of Gas Well Site 4-H.
Chairman Hill stated that Section 5.12 Oil and Gas Well Drilling of the Town’s Zoning
Ordinance does not allow drilling and production of oil and gas closer than 250-feet from
the wellhead to the property line of a property with a residence located on it. He stated
that the drilling and production offset distance is intended to protect the public safety
and health of residents of the Town.
Chairman Hill stated that the Commission has before it tonight a situation where a
developer proposes to build homes in locations where the rear property lines of 9 or so
lots are located less than 250 feet from existing producing gas wells. He stated that in
his opinion the Commission would be remiss in allowing construction of homes on lots
whose rear property lines would be less than 250 feet from currently existing and
producing gas wells. He stated that in evaluation of the existing natural gas production
facilities and some of the proposed home site lots, it is his opinion that the Commission
should not approve platting of residential home lots where the rear property lines would
lie within 250 feet of existing and producing gas wells.
Steve Lenart, Lenart Development Company, stated that there are six well sites
throughout the development of The Highlands and two already have homes that are
final platted next to the well sites with identical situations to this plat. He stated that they
conferred with staff to make sure there were no ordinances being broken with this
layout. The drilling ordinance is for new wells that come on line. He stated that they
have a relationship with Encana and that Encana is aware of this situation. They are
not going to give up their rights to drill wells and they understand that the drilling wells
out there are pretty much over. Mr. Lenart stated that there isn’t a way for the private
property line to not abut the gas well site unless a strip of no man’s land is created to be
maintained by the HOA or the Town. This neighborhood is being platted the same as
Neighborhood 2 where there are 80-ft. lots and some homes have been built and sold, I
believe, with the same situation that exists with this plat. The masonry wall was worked
out with Encana three or four years ago and that wall provides protection and screening
to the homeowners and public so they don’t see the gas well appliances. The masonry
wall will provide the backyard fencing for some of the lots.
Mr. Lenart stated that there are two sites that already have homes platted around them.
He stated that there are no mortgage issues with that, and they believe they are 100%
in compliance with State regulations. They ask for approval of this plat similar to the
previously approved plats.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 11 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Chairman Hill stated that with the way the Oil & Gas Ordinance is written, if Encana
wished to do drilling at the well site in the future, Encana would be required to have
permission of all the property owners located less than 250-ft. from the wellhead. Could
approving this plat be considered a ‘taking” of Encana’s rights?
Mr. Lenart stated that Encana is used to dealing with these situations and he doesn’t
believe they are intent on redrilling these sites. He stated that these things were taken
into consideration when a surface waiver agreement was done between Encana and a
previous owner that Mr. Moayedi bought the property from.
Commissioner Reed added that state law says that a mineral owner cannot be
prevented from recovering his minerals – that’s gas – and if you do you are subject to a
lawsuit. If you lose the lawsuit, you are required to pay the full value of the minerals
they have not recovered. The Town and the residents don’t want to get involved in that.
Commissioner Reed stated that he and Mr. Hill collectively have about 70 years
experience in the oil and gas industry. They were deeply involved in writing the
ordinance to allow the gas drilling to go on and he stated that they put the 250-ft. figure
in there for a specific purpose – to reduce the danger of anyone living around a gas well
site. He stated that the ordinance specifically says 250-ft. and as far as he is concerned
that ends it right there.
Mr. Moayedi stated that the way the ordinance is written is they can’t drill.
Commissioner Reed disagreed. He stated that it doesn’t allow drilling or production. He
stated that there is possible danger while producing.
Mr. Moayedi stated that there has been a conceptual plan for the whole site since 2006
with phases on the ground and precedents set. He stated that in other towns there is a
different setback for when the drilling operation is going on versus when the drilling is
done and then houses are built next to it. Commissioner Reed stated that he doesn’t
know about other towns and he doesn’t know how plats were approved with houses
closer than 250-ft. “I guess we just screwed up here in allowing it, but the fact remains
that our ordinance says no houses closer than 250-ft. and the fact that you have some
there already doesn’t mean we are going to compound the felony by approving more of
them now that we’ve brought it to light.”
Mr. Moayedi stated that it is not just this plat. He stated that it is going to affect him on
future lots near the gas wells. He stated that they went ahead and paid for land based
on the conceptual plan. He stated that as a land owner he should have the same rights
as the gas well owner. “When the gas company signed a surface agreement with us
the whole purpose of this thing was that they would get their drilling done before we
began building houses so that there is no more drilling operation. That ordinance has
always been interpreted by us in that way. I respect your time and opinions but it has
always been interpreted by us, especially because we have already been through
platting against other wells, that it was when new operations came in, not when homes
are being built next to existing well sites. Unless they are blind, the buyers will see that
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 12 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
there is a well site sitting there and when they buy the lot they will understand they are
next to a well site. There is no issue about disclosure. The damages on our side are a
lot of lots. This isn’t just one subdivision. Three or four other phases will lose 40 to 50
lots that may not be as much as the minerals but we are talking about a couple of
million dollars if not more. This thing was set up with a conceptual plan, with a specific
number of lots and we’ve been before you over and over again and already platted a
situation like this so we feel we have some rights in this matter too. Please think about
our side for a minute.”
Commissioner Reed stated that he appreciates that but there are two things to consider
-- safety factor and all of these wells at some point in time have to be refractured.
That’s not going to be possible with homes closer than 250-ft. Mr. Moayedi disagreed.
He stated that it was always his understanding that while a well is being drilled a home
cannot be placed closer than 250-ft. He stated that the precedent is already set with
two phases already going on. He stated that this is a bigger issue than one plat. Other
cities have allowed homes closer than 250-ft. if the drilling operation is over.
Commissioner Reed responded that perhaps their ordinances don’t say “drilling and
production”. It just doesn’t comply as far as I’m concerned.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked how houses were permitted to be built within 250-ft. in
light of the ordinance.
Ms. Huggins responded that two plats were approved about two years ago for phases of
Neighborhoods 1 and 2 and some of those lots are closer than the 250-ft.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked how that got passed.
Ms. Huggins responded that it did not come up in the platting stage. It was an error.
She stated that she takes full responsibility for that. She stated that she did not bring it
forward as an issue at the time. She stated that there are two approved plats with
residential lots that have lots closer than 250-ft.
Vice Chairman Stephens made a motion to table this item. He called for a second.
Commissioner Ashby seconded the motion. Vice Chairman Stephens asked for
Chairman Hill to call for the vote. Chairman Hill stated that not all of the Commissioners
have had a chance for discussion. Commissioner Ashby stated that he thinks this
needs more research. Commissioner Forest stated that he isn’t hearing what the
motion is. Vice Chairman Stephens stated that the motion is to table this item until
some answers can be provided to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Ms. Huggins
asked for clarification – “a motion to table for what purpose”? Vice Chairman Stephens
stated: “I don’t have to have a purpose but my intent is to get some legal advice about
moving forward on this item on the agenda and, going back further, what kind of liability
have we opened ourselves up to by allowing homes to be built by violating our
ordinance. That’s a problem.”
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 13 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Ms. Huggins stated that the two plats that were approved with homes closer than 250-ft.
does not set a precedent. Ms. Huggins stated that the Planning and Zoning
Commission has the responsibility of recommending approval or denial of this plat to the
Town Council based on whether or not the plat meets the requirements of the Town’s
zoning and subdivision regulations. In this case, the plat meets all requirements except
one – the distance from the wellheads to the residential property lines. The Town
Council has the authority to grant a waiver of the distance from the wellhead to the
residential property line.
Ms. Huggins also stated that the oil and gas company already has a Specific Use
Permit for this site and the SUP entitles “reworking” of the site.
Vice Chairman Stephens asked Chairman Hill to call for a vote on the motion to table.
Mr. Moayedi asked for an opportunity for discussion, which was denied. Chairman Hill
called for a vote and the vote was 3-3-0, with Stephens, Reed and Ashby voting for the
motion and Hill, Davidson, and Forest voting against and Sheridan abstaining.
Commissioner Reed withdrew his yes; Chairman Hill called for a second vote which was
3-4-0, with Stephens, Ashby and Forest voting for the motion and Hill, Reed, Davidson
and Sheridan voting against the motion.
Commissioner Sheridan asked everyone to be clear in their semantics, grammar and
wording. Are we dealing with 250-ft. from the property line? The house? From where?
Please be clear.
Ms. Huggins stated that the ordinance language is “250-ft. from the wellhead to the
property line of a property with a residence located on it”.
Mr. Moayedi stated that he is not here to pick a fight with anyone. He asked the
Commission to think about how we got to this point. “PD-27 was formulated four years
ago with concept plans and a number of lots. The ordinance, to us the way it read and
was interpreted, and Carolyn very graciously took the fall for it, but I don’t necessarily
think it was true. This thing was always intended from the drilling operation, not housing
operation. That’s the way it is in other cities, that’s the way… “
Vice Chairman Stephens interrupted to state that this is not other cities, this is Trophy
Club.
Mr. Moayedi stated that this development was studied for a long time and concept plans
and plats have been put before this Commission and the lots around the gas wells were
not missed by staff or the developer. They were platted according to the interpretation
that the 250-ft. was required for drilling and drilling is not occurring on those sites.
Commissioner Ashby stated that he doesn’t have any problems with the plat other than
when the setbacks were set for the gas wells there was a pretty tough battle amongst
“ourselves” and he’s reluctant to reduce that distance.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 14 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Commissioner Davidson stated that Section 5.12 leaves a loophole that the developer is
taking advantage of, and could take advantage of beyond the Council’s decision too.
That loophole is the ability to obtain property owner approval to rework the well. The
wellsite is already there. Houses are built around it. If the homeowners agree, then that
could be misinterpreted or interpreted to be a legal use of the plat presented to P&Z
tonight.
Mr. Moayedi stated that they do not wish to take advantage of any loopholes. He stated
that they have always dealt pretty straight up with everybody here and he feels they
have earned enough to say they are not trying to pick a fight with the mineral company
or with Trophy Club. He stated that they made an investment in a piece of property with
a certain amount of lots and they understood the ordinance to the best of their ability
and thought they were way beyond this stage. He stated that it is his understanding
that the oil and gas company does not need permission from surrounding homeowners
to refracture the wellsite.
Ms. Huggins stated that an Oil and Gas Special Use Permit allows the well to be
“reworked”. She read Section 5.12, Item F. No. 2 which states: “When an Oil and Gas
Well Permit has been issued covering a well, the permit shall constitute authority for
drilling, operation, production, gathering of production, maintenance, repair, reworking,
testing, site preparation consisting of rigs or tank batteries, plugging and abandonment,
and any other activity authorized by this Ordinance associated with drilling or production
by the operator and their respective employees, agents, and contractors.”
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that since the ordinance requires 250-ft. from the
wellhead to a residential property line then all the other stuff in the ordinance is
assuming that the well is 250-ft. from the property line of the residence. Mr. Stephens
stated that he feels they have been “betrayed, maybe unwittingly, by looking at what
you have done in other locations and knowing that 250-ft. is required, somebody didn’t
do due diligence based on this sentence in our ordinance. I am upset, to say the least,
that we allowed the permitting process to go forward and homes be built closer than
250-ft. Right now this ordinance is worthless because we are letting people trample
right over what we, as a City, approved. It’s an ordinance on the books. Enough said.”
Commissioner Reed stated the Town Council can approve an exception to this
ordinance, but “as a P&Z Commissioner, I cannot approve this because it is not in
accordance with our ordinance. So, we can recommend denial to the Town Council, but
they have the authority to override the denial and give you an exception.”
Steve Lenart stated that Lennar Homes is the current owner of all of the lots and would
give the gas well site owner permission, if necessary.
Commissioner Reed stated that it doesn’t matter. As a P&Z Commissioner he would
still recommend denial.
Mr. Moayedi asked Vice Chairman Stephens if has was referring to “us” betraying you?
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 15 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Vice Chairman Stephens responded, “Yes, because we assumed that you would abide
by our ordinance.” The ordinance requires 250-ft. “I assume that your legal team did
their due diligence and they had to have read that sentence and yet we just keep right
on platting and drawing houses and streets that will have houses on them that are less
than 250-ft. from the wellhead to the property line. I feel that we are trying to be bowled
over. Until we can get legal advice and a procedure as to how they can go on to the
City Council, as a Planning and Zoning Commissioner I cannot vote to send this to the
City Council because it is in direct violation of a City ordinance.”
Chairman Hill stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission can recommend denial
and the matter will go on to the Council and the Council can make their own decision.
Mr. Moayedi stated that he takes it personally that the comment was made that we
came in and tricked you. Vice Chairman Stephens responded that he takes it
personally that the 250-ft. requirement in the ordinance was ignored. Mr. Moayedi
stated that their interpretation was always that it was applicable during the drilling
operation only.
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that the word “production” is there.
Ms. Huggins stated that many cities have struggled with the terminology of gas well
drilling. Most cities consider “drilling” to be when a rig is there and the lights are on and
there is lots of activity, noise and truck traffic. Once the activity part is past and it is just
a producing well, it is no longer considered a drilling and production site. Other cities in
the last several years have begun to allow homes to be built closer to well sites. Ms.
Huggins stated that the oil and gas ordinance was created by quite a few of the present
P&Z members and approved by the Council prior to PD-27 being approved. When PD-
27 was approved there was a concept plan and that plan showed homes right next to
the wellsites in Neighborhoods 1-9. It was not questioned then. Two plats were
approved with homes closer than 250-ft. This issue did not come up with those plats
and Ms. Huggins stated that she takes responsibility for that because she did not bring it
up as an issue, one of the reasons being that it was on the concept plan. The gas well
ordinance was already in existence and no one questioned it until this plat came along
and Ms. Huggins stated she was now more familiar with the ordinances and began
asking some questions. She stated that she immediately brought it up to the applicant
and his response was, “This has been in existence for a long time, it hasn’t been an
issue before; why would it be now?”
Ms. Huggins stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission can recommend approval
or denial to the Town Council and the Town Council can make a decision as to whether
or not to allow homes closer than 250-ft. Ms. Huggins stated that she believes it is safe
and that anyone buying these homes will know that they are purchasing a lot next to a
gas well.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 16 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Mr. Moayedi asked if there is something they can do to make the Commissioners more
comfortable with passing this preliminary plat? Is there a document they can have the
homeowner sign?
Vice Chairman Stephens stated that he cannot and will not violate the law of the Town
which is Section 5.12.
Commissioner Sheridan stated that he can’t believe he missed 250-ft. on previous plats.
Commissioner Reed responded, “I guess you did.” Commissioner Sheridan stated that
perhaps he missed it on the previous plats because there might have been 250-ft. from
the wellhead to the house [versus property line]. He has a question regarding legal
opinion. “Are we in conflict? What is the law? Which takes precedent? It seems there
are three different things that conflict within an SUP and the ordinance. Is there
precedent based on which is last?” He stated that if this were postponed to try to
answer some of these questions, would that change his vote – positive or negative – or
anybody’s vote here positive or negative. He would like to see what was passed. He
wants to see the plats. He would like a legal opinion on the ordinance versus the SUP.
He stated that he will look at Fort Worth and other cities ordinances, but he wonders
even if all that is done, would that change anyone’s opinion or vote tonight. “If it’s not
going to change the vote, then let’s vote it down and let the Town Council handle it. If
more information, better information, with better detail and a legal opinion…”
Commissioner Reed stated that people are going to interpret things differently, no
doubt. He stated, “Mr. Hill and I were predominantly the authors of this ordinance and I
can assure you when we picked 250-ft. it had to do with drilling for gas and it had to do
with production of gas.”
Mr. Moayedi asked if there would be any value in having a worksession with an attorney
present?
Vice Chairman Stephens responded, “No Sir.” He stated, “Chairman Hill I believe the
best way for them to move forward is to go before the Town Council. I move we deny
applicant’s request made before us tonight.”
Commissioner Reed seconded the motion.
Commissioner Forest asked to make a comment. He stated: “There are too many
unknowns and we are not getting the answers they need and someone legally needs to
get involved in this. “It’s not right for the developer to be told that what they’ve been
doing is correct and then turn around and get to one point and they can’t do anything
else with it. I don’t think that’s right to the developer. Someplace it should have been
stopped prior to getting here. At this point it is not our decision to make anyway. It
should go to the Council.”
Chairman Hill restated the voting options available to the Planning & Zoning
Commission.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 17 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Commissioner Reed: “I don’t see how we can do our job and follow the guidelines of
what we are supposed to be doing to recommend approval of something that is not in
agreement with our ordinance. Only the Town Council has the authority to approve
something that is different than our ordinance. P&Z doesn’t have that authority.”
Chairman Hill called for a vote.
Vice Chairman Stephens made a motion recommending denial of the Preliminary Plat
for Neighborhood 8. Commissioner Reed seconded the motion.
Ayes: Hill, Reed, Ashby, Davidson, Forest, Sheridan, Stephens
Nays: None
Action: 7-0, Denied
The Town Council will hear this item on March 22, 2010.

SUBJECT: Public Hearing to Consider a Request for a Zoning Change
from “PD-27” Planned Development No. 27 to “CR”
Commercial Recreation for Northwest Park, located just north

Applicant: Town of Trophy Club Parks and Recreation

APPLICANT/OWNER: Town of Trophy Club
100 Municipal Drive
Trophy Club, TX 76262
EXISTING CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY: Unplatted, vacant land.
EXISTING ZONING OF THE PROPERTY: PD-27 (Planned Development No. 27).
This property fulfilled part of the parkland dedication requirement for PD-27.
ADJACENT ZONING LAND USES:
North: Byron Nelson High School
South: Trophy Club Recreation Center and Neighborhood 9 of The Highlands at
Trophy Club
East: PD-27, Village Center, Tract 2, Lot 1 (owned by Centurion Acquisitions)
and PD-27 Tract 2, Lot 2 (owned by a church)
West: Medlin Middle School and PD-27, Village Center, Tract 1, Lot 1
STAFF COMMENTS
PURPOSE: Northwest Park is currently vacant, undeveloped land, which will be
developed into a recreational complex with buildings, ball fields and parking. Northwest
Park lies just to the north of the existing community pool property. The Town of Trophy
Club plans to develop Northwest Park in conjunction with improvements to the
community pool site. In the near future, the town will bring forward a request to plat
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 21 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
Northwest Park and the community pool site into one lot in order to develop the entire
site as one project. The community pool site is zoned “CR” (Commercial Recreation).
The Northwest Park site is zoned “PD-27” (Planned Development No. 27). In order to
develop the two sites together as one lot/project, the zoning for the two sites must
match – different zoning designations are not allowed on the same lot. Therefore, this
request is to rezone Northwest Park from “PD-27” to “CR” so that the two sites will have
the same zoning designation for future platting and development.
Later this year, the Parks and Recreation Department will be bringing forward a site
plan approval for Northwest Park to the Planning and Zoning Commission and Town
Council.
DISTRICT REGULATIONS: The purpose of the Commercial Recreation District is to
accommodate and allow development of recreation areas compatible with recreational
use. A concept plan of Northwest Park is included with this packet, showing the entire
development of the park and pool areas for recreational use. The “CR” zoning
designation is a better fit than PD-27 for park development as the majority of PD-27 was
created for the development of residential use.
PUBLIC HEARING: As required by ordinance, a notice of public hearing was published
in the local newspaper and property owners within 200-ft. of Northwest Park were
notified of this request. Copies of the notices are attached.

C. Oil and Gas Well Drilling and Production “By Specific Use Permit (SUP)”
1. The drilling and production of oil and gas within the corporate limits of the Town shall be
permitted by Specific Use Permit provided that the property line of any residential structure or
public building, institution or school is a minimum of one-thousand feet (1,000’) from the
wellhead and provided that the drilling and production of oil or gas meets the following
requirements:
a. All applicable standards set forth in this Ordinance and the Oil & Gas Well Manual,
Standards for Oil and Gas Well Drilling and Production;
b. An approved Oil and Gas Well Development Site Plan and a Road Repair Agreement
are on file with the Town; and
c. An Oil or Gas Well Permit has been issued by the Town.
2. The drilling and production of oil and gas within the corporate limits of the Town shall be
permitted by Specific Use Permit as close as two hundred fifty feet (250’) from the wellhead to
the property line of a property with a residence located on it if all property owners agree in
writing and provided that the drilling and production of oil or gas meets the requirements of
this Ordinance and a Specific Use Permit.
3. Upon request of a property owner, operator, or other applicant for SUP (collectively referred to
herein as “Applicant”), the Town Council, upon recommendation by the Planning and Zoning
Commission, shall hear and shall seriously and fairly consider a request for a waiver from the
requirement for a one-thousand foot (1,000’) setback specified in subparagraph 1 of this
Section. A waiver may be authorized and will not be contrary to the public interest, where,
owing to special conditions, the literal enforcement of the provisions of the setback
requirement will result in unnecessary hardship, including a substantial economic hardship; or
the setback requirement would prevent an Applicant from accessing his/her mineral interest.
Applicant may make such request for waiver as a part of his/her SUP application.
4. A habitable structure may be built a minimum of 200-ft. from an existing well if the well
is no longer being drilled but has been fitted with a wellhead for production only of gas.
D. Specific Use Permit Application Requirements
1. No person, acting for himself or acting as an agent, employee, independent contractor, or
servant for any person, shall engage in drilling or production of an oil or gas well within the
corporate limits of the Town without first obtaining a Specific Use Permit.
2. An application for a Specific Use Permit for the drilling and production of an oil or gas well
shall be filed by the person having legal authority. That person is presumed to be the record
owner, mineral owner, or the duly authorized agent of either the record owner or the mineral
owner. The applicant shall submit information evidencing his/her authority to file an
application with the Town.
3. All applications to be considered for Oil and Gas Drilling and Production under these
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 37 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
regulations shall be submitted to the Town Planning & Zoning Coordinator, along with a
completed application and fees, and must be in accordance with all Ordinance requirements.
An application for Specific Use Permit may be submitted but shall not be considered as being
filed with the Town until it has been determined to be administratively complete. An
application for approval shall be considered administratively complete when Town staff
determines that it meets all requirements of applicable Town Ordinances so that it may be
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission, has been placed on the agenda for the
Commission, and the agenda has been posted as required by law. An incomplete application
shall not be considered "filed" with the Town as defined in this Ordinance, but shall be
returned to the applicant for completion and re-submittal.
E. Recommendations for Specific Use Permits
1. The Planning & Zoning Coordinator shall forward all applications for Specific Use Permits to
the Planning & Zoning Commission for review. An application may be submitted but shall not
be considered as being filed with the Town until it has been determined to be administratively
complete. The Planning & Zoning Commission shall review each application within thirty (30)
days after filing and shall make recommendations regarding the applications to the Town
Council. A copy of all recommendations shall be provided to the operator. The Planning &
Zoning Commission may make recommendations regarding any aspect of the proposed oil or
gas well development including, but not limited to, recommendations with respect to the
standards set forth in this Ordinance.
2. In connection with its review of an application for a Specific Use Permit for the drilling and
production of gas wells, the Planning & Zoning Commission may determine that it is
necessary to hire a petroleum specialist to assist the Commission in reviewing the application.
If such a determination is made, the Planning & Zoning Commission will provide the operator
a written “scope of work” that the Commission proposes for such specialist. The Planning &
Zoning Commission and the operator will attempt to agree upon the “scope of work”; however,
the decision of the Commission shall control. If required by the specialist, the operator will
provide a retainer; otherwise, the operator will pay for the services of the specialist after they
are rendered. All work performed by the specialist shall be itemized on a daily basis (including
a description of the work and the amount of time spent), and such itemization shall be
provided to the operator with each request for payment.
3. The Planning & Zoning Commission has the authority to establish guidelines to use in making
recommendations for a Specific Use Permit. Guidelines shall be placed in the Oil and Gas
Well Manual.
4. A public hearing shall be conducted for all applications for SUP pursuant to Section 6.02 of the
Town’s Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. Notice thereof shall be given in the manner and
form required for amendments as set out in Section 8.06 of the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, entitled Amendments, and as required by State law; provided however, that notice
of such public hearing shall be given to each owner, as indicated by the most recently
approved municipal tax roll, of real property within five hundred feet (500’) of the property line
or one-thousand feet (1,000’) from the wellhead, upon which an SUP application for oil and /
or gas well drilling and production is being considered. If, because of the location of the
proposed well site, the application of the notice requirements herein would result in notice
being sent only to a sparsely populated area, including, but not limited to only a portion of a
subdivision, the Town Manager may, at her discretion require additional notice at the
applicant’s expense.
F. Oil and Gas Well Permit Required
1. Any person, acting for himself or acting as an agent, employee, independent contractor, or
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 38 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
servant for any person, shall not engage in the drilling and production of oil or gas wells within
the corporate limits of the Town without first obtaining an Oil and Gas Well Permit issued
under this Ordinance. An operator may apply for and obtain separate permits covering each
well or a “blanket” permit covering multiple wells within a Specific Use Permit.
2 When an Oil and Gas Well Permit has been issued covering a well, the permit shall constitute
authority for drilling, operation, production, gathering of production, maintenance, repair, re-
working, testing, site preparation consisting of rigs or tank batteries, plugging and
abandonment, and any other activity authorized by this Ordinance associated with drilling or
production by the operator and their respective employees, agents, and contractors. An Oil
and Gas Well Permit shall also constitute authority for the construction and use of all facilities
reasonably necessary or convenient in connection therewith, including gathering lines and
discharge lines, by the operator and its respective employees, agents, contractors and
subcontractors.
3 An Exploration Permit shall be required for exploration for oil or gas. Exploration for oil or gas
means geologic or geophysical activities, including, but not limited to surveying and seismic
exploration, related to the search for oil, gas, or other sub-surface hydrocarbons.
4. An Oil and Gas Well Permit shall not, however, constitute authority for the re-entering and
drilling of an abandoned well. Re-entry and drilling of an abandoned well shall require a new
Oil and Gas Well Permit.
5. Applications For Oil and Gas Well Permits Shall Be In Accordance With The Following:
a. Shall be submitted in writing, on forms provided by the Town.
d. Shall include a copy of the applicable Pipeline Easement Map indicating the gathering
station site.

Incomplete applications shall be returned to the applicant, in which case the Town shall
provide a written explanation of the deficiencies if requested by the applicant. The Town shall
retain a processing fee determined by the Town’s Fee Schedule, adopted by Ordinance. The
Town may return any application as incomplete if there is a dispute pending before the
Railroad Commission regarding the determination of the operator.
2. The Town Designee shall review each application within thirty (30) days after filing and shall
determine whether the application includes all of the information required by this Ordinance,
whether the application is in conformance with the applicable Oil and Gas Well Development
Site Plan, the applicable Specific Use Permit, and whether the application is in conformance
with the insurance and security requirements set forth in this Ordinance. The Town Designee
shall forward a written report regarding its determination to the operator.

conformance with the applicable Development Site Plan and applicable Specific Use Permit.
The Town Designee may employ a technical advisor.
4. The Town Designee may condition the release of the approved Oil and Gas Well Permit upon
the operator providing the security required by this Ordinance and upon the operator entering
into a Road Repair Agreement that will obligate the operator to repair damage excluding
ordinary wear and tear, if any, to public streets, including but not limited to bridges, caused by
the operator or by the operator’s employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors or
representatives in the performance of any activity authorized by or contemplated by the

operation site that is shown on (or incorporated by reference as part of) the existing permit, or
to otherwise amend the existing permit.
2. Applications for amended Oil and Gas Well Permits shall be in writing, shall be on forms
provided by the Town Designee, shall be signed by the operator, and shall include the
following:
a. The application fee as set by Town ordinance;
b. A description of the proposed amendments;
c. Any changes to the information submitted with the application for the existing Oil and
Gas Well Permit (if such information has not previously been provided to the Town);
d. Such additional information as is reasonably required by the Town Designee or Town
Staff to demonstrate compliance with the applicable Development Site Plan and
applicable Specific Use Permit; and
e. Such additional information as is reasonably required by the Town Designee or Town
Staff to prevent imminent destruction of property or injury to persons.

as incomplete if there is a dispute pending before the Railroad Commission regarding the
determination of the operator.
4. If the activities proposed by the amendment are not materially different from the activities
covered by the existing Oil and Gas Well Permit, and if the proposed activities are in
conformance with the applicable Development Site Plan and applicable Specific Use Permit,
then the Town Designee shall approve the amendment within ten (10) days after the
application is filed.
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 45 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
5. If the activities proposed by the amendment are materially different from the activities covered
by the existing Oil and Gas Well Permit, and if the proposed activities are in conformance with
the applicable Development Site Plan and applicable Specific Use Permit, then the Town
Designee shall approve the amendment within thirty (30) days after the application is filed. If,
however, the activities proposed by the amendment are materially different and, in the
judgment of the Town Designee, might create a risk of imminent destruction of property or
injury to persons that was not associated with the activities covered by the existing permit or
that was not otherwise taken into consideration by the existing permit, the Town Designee
may require the amendment to be processed as a new Oil and Gas Well Permit application.
6. The failure of the Town Designee to review and issue an amended Oil and Gas Well Permit
within the time limits specified above shall not cause the application for the amended permit to
be deemed approved.
7. The decision of the Town Designee to deny an amendment to an Oil and Gas Well Permit
shall be provided to the operator in writing within ten (10) days after the decision, including an
explanation of the basis for the decision. The operator may appeal any such denial to the

1. An Oil and Gas Well Permit may be transferred by the operator with the consent of the Town if
the transfer is in writing signed by both parties, and the transferee agrees to be bound by the
terms and conditions of the transferred permit, if all information previously provided to the
Town as part of the application for the transferred permit is updated to reflect any changes
and if the transferee provides the insurance and security required by this Ordinance. The
insurance and security provided by the transferor shall be released if a copy of the written
transfer is provided to the Town. The transfer shall not relieve the transferor from any liability
to the Town arising out of any activities conducted prior to the transfer.
O. Remedies of the Town
1. If an operator (or its officers, employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors or
representatives) fails to comply with any requirement of an Oil and Gas Well Permit (including
any requirement incorporated by reference as part of the permit), the Town Designee and/or
Town Staff shall give written notice to the operator specifying the nature of the alleged failure
and giving the operator a reasonable time to cure, taking into consideration the nature and
extent of the alleged failure, the extent of the efforts required to cure, and the potential impact
on the health, safety, and welfare of the community. In no event, however, shall the cure
period be less than thirty (30) days unless the alleged failure presents a risk of imminent
destruction of property or injury to persons or unless the alleged failure involves the operator’s
failure to provide periodic reports. The Fire Marshall may issue a Stop Work Order under the
Fire Code.
2. If the operator does not cure the alleged failure within the time specified by the Town
Designee and/or Town Staff, the Town Designee and/or Town Staff may notify the Railroad
Commission and request that the Railroad Commission take appropriate action (with a copy of
such notice provided to the operator), and the Town may pursue any other remedy available
under this Ordinance.
3. If the operator does not cure the alleged failure within the time specified by the Town
Designee and/or Town Staff, the Town Designee and/or Town Staff may recommend:
a. The Town Council to suspend the Oil and Gas Well Permit until the alleged failure is
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 46 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
cured; or,
b. The Town Council to revoke the Oil and Gas Well Permit if the operator fails to initiate
and diligently pursue a cure.
4. The decision of the Town Designee and/or Town Staff to recommend suspension or
revocation of an Oil and Gas Well Permit shall be provided to the operator in writing at least
ten (10) days before any action by the Town Council.
5. If an Oil and Gas Well Permit is revoked, the operator will be given a hearing in front of the
Town Council.
P. Enforcement, Right of Entry
1. The Town Designee and/or Town Staff is authorized and directed to enforce this Ordinance

and (2) an increase in lot coverage of Lot Type 4 lots from 40% to 43%.
Screening and Fencing Requirements
The applicant, on behalf of the builders in The Highlands at Trophy Club requests
permission to be able to install a gate and associated fencing across the driveways of
Lot Types 1, 2 and 3.
The applicant asks to add the following as No. 6 of Section C. “Screening and Fences”
of Section VI. “Development and Design Standards” of Exhibit B “Development

6. Lot Types 1, 2, and 3 may have a gate and associated fencing located

but at no point shall the gate and associated fencing be located beyond the
front facade of the Main Structure per the following requirements:
a. The gate shall cross the driveway.
b. The hinge-end(s) of the gate(s) shall terminate into a minimum 2’x 2’
masonry structure, the Main Structure, or an Accessory Building.
c. The gate and associated fencing material shall be wrought-iron, no
wooden fence material will be allowed on any portion of the Lot from a
point 10’ behind the front Build Line forward to the street right-of-way on
which the Main Structure faces.
d. The side yard fencing adjacent to the gate shall be wrought iron from the
front building line to a point 10’ behind the front Building Line, at which
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 55 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
point it shall transition to the required material for that remaining side yard
area.
e. If the Lot is located adjacent to a masonry screening wall, the wrought iron
fence located parallel to, and even with the front facade of the Main

masonry screening wall.
The following definition for “Main Structure” would be added to “Definitions” (Section III):
Main Structure: The primary residence to be constructed on any Lot.
Lot Type 4 Lot Coverage Increase from 40% to 43%
PD-27 regulates the lot coverage allowed for each lot type in The Highlands at Trophy

coverages are as follows:
TYPE MINIMUM LOT SIZE LOT COVERAGE
Lot Type 1 12,000 sq. ft. 35%

building, buildings or other structures.
PD-27 further defines “Lot Coverage” for Lot Type 4 as follows:
Lot Coverage: The combined area covered by all main
buildings and accessory structures… Swimming pools and
spas shall not be included in determining maximum building
coverage.
The applicant is requesting an increase in lot coverage for all Lot Type 4 lots from 40%
lot coverage to 43% lot coverage. There are approximately 177 Lot Type 4 lots and all
are located in Neighborhood 1.

constructed with a pitched roof. Those structures having a
footprint greater than 6,000 square feet shall be
constructed with either a pitched or parapet roof system
enclosed on all sides.

covering no less than fifty percent (50%) of the
façade area.
iii. Entryways recessed at least four feet (4’).
b. Permitted Finishes:

structures shall include reveals, punch-outs, or
other similar surface characteristics to enhance the
façade on at least twenty percent (20%) of each
façade.
iii. Side facades and rear facades shall be of finished
quality and of the same color and materials that
blend with the front of the building. Rear facades
may be painted tilt-wall or painted block matching
the same color of the rest of the building if the rear

Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 97 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
2) To improve the pedestrian orientation, the ground floor of

of the base;
ii. Recessed windows or other techniques to
distinguish the windows in the façade such as
arches, pediments and mullions; and
iii. Entryways recessed at least four feet (4’).
3) The utilization of repetitive storefronts for “architectural”
consistency is discouraged in order to maintain an
interesting street experience; although the utilization of
common architectural elements shall be considered to
facilitate a certain level of functional continuity.
c. Building Orientation and Pedestrian Site Design:
1) Any building (excluding parking garages and other
accessory buildings) viewed from a public right-of-way or
public open space shall either face such right-of-way or
open space, or shall have a façade facing such area in
keeping with the character of the front façade, including
the utilization of similar fenestration and materials.
2) Pedestrian Elements
To improve the walkability and access of commercial and
retail areas, the following are encouraged in the site design
of a project:

iii. Parking spaces shall be a minimum depth of 18
feet and a minimum width of 9 feet; to encourage
better shade patterns, parking bays shall be
separated by a minimum five foot (5’) wide
landscaped median (See illustration below), with
three inch (3”) caliper shade trees planted every
thirty feet and wheel stops placed so as to allow the
front of vehicles to encroach over the landscaped
median without hitting the trees.
Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 99 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
iv. Foundation plantings are required for buildings or
groups of buildings greater than 40,000 square feet
and where the front building facade does not abut a
public sidewalk, including a 3.0 inch caliper shade
tree for every 10,000 square feet of gross building
area consistent with the Tree List as set forth in
Section VI. Small ornamental trees are permitted
on a ratio of 4 to 1 instead of 3.0 inch caliper shade
trees. This is intended to enhance the pedestrian
experience in front of larger buildings and to break
up large impervious surfaces between parking
areas and the building. Foundation planting trees
shall be planted within approximately 30 feet of the
front façade and are required in addition to any
street trees required herein. Tree grates shall be
utilized for trees planted less than four (4) feet back
of curb. Tree spacing shall not impede sign
visibility or pedestrian safety but shall be placed so
as to provide an effective shade environment in
front of the building.
d. Loading Areas and Trash Receptacles:
1) Loading and service areas shall be located at the side of or
in the rear of buildings. Every effort should be made to
reduce the need for segregated loading and service areas
by ensuring that deliveries are made off-hours. Such uses
as grocery stores, however, may require a loading dock
area. Where tractor/semi-trailer delivery may conflict with Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 100 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
land uses on or adjacent to the site, then the following
standards shall be followed:
i. Loading and service areas shall be located at the
side or rear of buildings.
ii. Off-street loading areas shall be screened from
view of any street public open space or adjacent
property.
iii. Loading areas shall be enclosed on three sides by
a wall or other screening device not less than 10
feet in height.
iv. Loading areas shall not be located closer than 50’
to any residential lot, unless wholly within an
enclosed building.
v. Screening materials shall be comprised of a wall
that has a similar finish to the primary structure, or
a combination of trees and shrubs that will result in
solid screening within 2 years.
vi. However, when adjacent to a residentially zoned
district a screening wall with landscaping shall be
used.
2. Trash/Recycling Receptacles:
i. Commercial trash/recycling containers shall be
located on the side or rear of the building and
screened from public view.
ii. Such containers shall be located at least 50’ away
from adjacent residential property lines.
iii. Such containers shall be screened on 4 sides,
using an enclosure that is 7’ tall or of a height that
is a minimum of 1’ above the top of the container,
whichever is taller. Screening shall be comprised of
brick, stone, reinforced concrete, or other similar
masonry materials that have a similar finish to the
primary finish; and all fence posts shall be rust-
protected metal, concrete based masonry or
concrete pillars.
Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 101 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010

protect the enclosure from truck operations.
v. Such container enclosures shall have steel gates
and tie-backs to secure them in an open position,
and fasteners to keep them closed.
vi. Screening shall be maintained at all times.
e. Signage
1) General: Signs shall be flat against the façade, projecting
from the façade or ground monument mounted. No signs
shall project above the façade unless approved as part of
a site plan as a “landmark sign” such as a theater marquee
or other special sign located in an prominent location and
intended to provide a special character to the district and
orientation to visitors.
2) Lighting: Signs shall generally be externally lit. Only
individual letters and symbols may be internally lit. Neon
signs shall be prohibited.
3) Finish Materials: Materials shall complement the
architecture of the building, and may include wood—
painted or natural; metal—copper, brass, galvanized steel;
painted canvas; paint; engraving directly on façade
surface; and brick or stone for monument signs.
4) Wall Signs:
i. One and a half (1.5) square feet of signage is
permitted for each linear foot of the primary facade
of the building, excluding wing walls. (E.g. a 100’
long building façade would allow for 150 square
feet of wall sign area on the building.)
ii. Only one building façade with a primary entrance
may be used to calculate wall signage.
iii. Wall signs may be placed on any face of the
building except if adjacent to a residential lot.
iv. Maximum area of any single sign mounted
perpendicular to a given façade shall not exceed 10
square feet unless it protrudes above the top of the
facade.
Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 102 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
v. Protruding or hanging signs shall maintain a

linear feet, then one monument sign per 500’ of
frontage is permitted. (E.g. a site with 1,000’ or
more of frontage may have two (2) monument
signs, a site with 1,500’ or more may have three (3)
signs, etc.).
iv. The structure of monument signs shall be
constructed of materials and colors utilized on the
primary building’s façade.
v. Monument signs must be spaced a minimum of two
hundred fifty feet (250’) apart, unless approved
otherwise at Detailed Site Plan.
6) Parking: Retail and office uses shall meet the Town’s
parking standards at the time of development.

Primary structure, entry and associated outdoor waiting area
Outdoor dining
Service, utility infrastructure, refuse and storage area
Pedestrian and vehicular circulation systems, and parking
Drive through windows and associated equipment and stacking lanes
Primary Structure, Entry and Associated Outdoor Waiting Area: All development proposals
should show evidence of coordination with the site plan requirements as shown in the Town of
Trophy Club Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 13, Article V, Supplementary District Regulations and
the Architectural and Site Design Standards required in PD-27, Village Center. Development
proposals should show evidence of coordination with contextual influences of neighboring
properties in regard to building setbacks, orientation, and relationship of structures to each other
and to the street. The layout of the site should respect and build upon the arrangement of
buildings, open spaces and landscape elements of adjacent sites.
Where a common setback from the street is evident, new buildings should respect the
established setback. Variation is allowed if the resulting arrangement of buildings defines a
useful public space such as a plaza or open space.
Building entries should be convenient to parking, but also seek and develop shared vehicular
access points with adjoining sites where feasible, and seek and develop pedestrian linkages
between adjacent properties.
Outdoor Dining: Outdoor dining areas are encouraged in Tract 2, oriented toward Northwest
Park. Outdoor dining areas should be located away from neighboring residential areas and other
sensitive uses.

Service, Utility Infrastructure, and Refuse Area:
The clustering of service and refuse areas is encouraged where adjacency of similar uses
would allow such areas.
Service areas and refuse enclosures should be screened from public view and screened from
adjacent sites.
Identify the location of utility infrastructure facilities early in the design process. When
possible, locate utility cabinets, switching cabinets, transformers, cable boxes,
communications infrastructure, backflow preventors, irrigation control boxes and other
similar above ground utilities in locations that do not conflict with featured views, outdoor
dining areas and circulation patterns. Utility cabinets should not be located within parking
lot landscape islands or in highly visible locations within the right-of-way. Utilities should
be screened to the extent allowable by operation requirements.
Pedestrian and Vehicular Circulation Systems, and Parking: Site design shall accommodate a
logical and safe vehicular and pedestrian circulation pattern that minimizes conflicts. Links for
pedestrians should be direct and avoid circuitous routes that are not easily understood.
Drive Through Windows and Associated Equipment and Stacking Lanes:
Drive-through windows, menu boards and associated stacking lanes should be carefully
located to minimize the impacts on neighboring residential areas and should be adequately
screened from the street, from public view, and from the view of adjacent sites.
Drive-through elements should be architecturally integrated into the building, rather than
appearing to be applied or “stuck on” to the building.
Drive-through window circulation shall provide a minimum stacking distance of 100 feet to
provide adequate length of stacking that does not interfere with the movement of traffic or
pedestrians on or off-site.
A facility with a separate ordering point and pick-up window shall provide stacking space for
at least three (3) vehicles in advance of each ordering point and stacking space for at least
two (2) vehicles between each ordering point and pick-up window.
Entrances to drive-up lanes shall be at least 50 feet from driveways entering a public street.
The minimum width of each drive-through lane shall be 12 feet. The entrance to the lane and
the direction of traffic flow shall be clearly designated by signs, or pavement marking, or
raised curbs.
When residential adjacency exists, drive-through windows are not permitted.
Architecture
Each building will be evaluated with regard to the guidelines below to achieve a final building of
good proportion and scale.
Buildings that derive their image predominantly from applied treatments that express
corporate identity are discouraged. A building should conform to the Village Center
Architectural and Site Design Standards first.
Awnings may be used on street level windows and doors and should be functional and
provide maximum shade to the window area. Awnings are to be made of predominately
natural or natural-appearing fabric or canopies. Awnings should not be internally lit. The
bottom of an awning must be placed below the top of the window, but above the door.

Planning and Zoning Commission Page 105 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
If a tract is divided into pad sites that will support more than one restaurant, the restaurants
should share similar design characteristics and design vocabulary. Precise replication is not
necessary or desirable, but consideration should be given to similar color, material, and
texture found within the architecture of the buildings.
Shading for outdoor dining should be architecturally integrated with the main structure.
Landscape Design
The landscape design of the site should contribute to the overall appearance and function of the
site and streetscape.
Landscape should blend with the dominant existing or planned streetscape and character of
the area.
Landscaping should be provided at the base of buildings to anchor them to the surrounding
environment and soften the structure. In-ground landscaping should comprise the majority of
the landscaping requirement and be maximized to provide shade and to reduce heat build-up
and glare. Raised planters are acceptable when designed to accentuate the architecture and/or
create pedestrian seating areas.
Landscaping should be placed to maximize screening from neighboring residential areas.
Dense landscaping and architectural treatments should be used in combination to screen
unattractive views and features such as storage areas, trash enclosures, utility cabinets, and
other similar elements.
The use of mature trees is encouraged to provide an immediate impact especially when used
in buffering adjacent uses.
Proper maintenance and timely replacement of plant material is expected and required by
ordinance.
Lighting
Site lighting and architectural lighting of restaurants should provide the user with illumination
levels appropriate for the designed activity (i.e., parking, walking, outdoor dining). Illumination
levels should also be reasonably uniform throughout the site and absent of glare.
A lighting design and plan is required. The lighting plan must include, but is not limited to:
type of lighting equipment, lamp source and wattage, fixture locations, mounting height,
shielding, mounting details, photometric data including point-by-point horizontal
illuminance at ground level and uniformity ration, etc. (per consultant). All illumination of
the site, including architectural lighting, should be taken into account in the lighting plan.
Avoid competing light levels and maintain balanced light levels on-site and between
adjacent properties. The exterior lighting design must take into account the background
lighting levels, lighting from other sources, and characteristics of the surrounding area.
Signage/Corporate Identification
Restaurant signage plans should reflect a balance between providing adequate signage for
business identification while protecting the visual aesthetics of Trophy Club’s streetscapes.
Treatments used to achieve business identity such as awnings, paint, or signage should be
used judiciously and should not be the dominant architectural feature.
All signage should be architecturally integrated with their surroundings in terms of size,
shape, color, texture, and lighting so as to not visually compete with the architectural of the
Deleted: 1¶
Planning and Zoning Commission Page 106 of 151 Meeting Date: April 15, 2010
building and site. Signs should be integrated such that they become a natural part of the
building façade.
When multiple restaurants share one site, signs should be integrated as one unit to create
shared identity for the property to the extent permitted by the ordinance or be located and/or
designed as a package.
Building design should anticipate signage, providing logical sign areas and allowing
flexibility for new users (if applicable).
Repetitious signage information on the same building façade should be avoided.
Signs composed of individual letters are encouraged. Back lit or indirectly lit individual
letters are generally desirable. Visible raceways and transformers for individual letters are
discouraged.
